In Florida, you must keep a distance of at least 500 feet to a fire truck responding to an alarm.

In Florida, you must dim your headlights to low beam within 300 feet of any vehicle ahead of you and within 500 feet of any oncoming vehicle.

In Florida, you may turn against a red arrow after coming to a complete stop and:

A red arrow indicates you must not turn in the direction of the arrow unless it’s safe to turn and (1) turning right or (2) turning left from a one-way street onto a one way street. Look for signs that prohibit the turn. In all other cases you must wait for the green arrow before proceeding.

Which statement is true? A load extending more than ____ to any side must be clearly marked.

Loads that extend more than 4 feet must be clearly marked. During the day, you must mark the limits of the load using red flags at least 18 inches square. At night or in low visibility, mark the load using red lamps and mark the width of the load using two red reflectors.

What is the speed limit in business or residential areas unless otherwise posted?

In Florida, the standard speed limit is 30 mph in business, residential and municipal areas unless otherwise posted.

It’s against the law to drive too slowly. What is the minimum speed you may drive on a highway with a posted speed limit of 70 mph?

The minimum speed you may drive is 50 mph on a 70 mph highway unless otherwise posted or driving in bad weather. This speed limit restriction is used to keep slow vehicles off the highway and keep traffic moving at a fast pace. In bad weather, you should slow down. Remember to drive at a safe speed for the conditions at all times.

Which statement is true regarding two-way roads with a Center Turn lane?

Center Turn lanes are used to help all road users make a safe left turn on two-way streets. Drivers from either direction may use the turn lane.

Who in the vehicle has to wear a seatbelt under Florida Law?

The driver, front seat passengers, and all passengers under 18 years old (regardless of seating position) must wear a seatbelt in Florida. Seatbelts prevent persons from being thrown out of the vehicle in case of an accident. They will drastically reduce the risk of serious injury in a crash.

How often must you renew your license plates and registrations?

In Florida, you must renew your license plate and registrations annually or every 2nd year. Registrations for most vehicles expire on the birthday of the listed first owner, and may be renewed within 90 days of the expiration date.

An officer asks you to take a breath test. What will happen if you refuse to take the test?

Refusal to take a breath, blood or urine test will result in license suspension for 12 months.

In which order should the cars proceed?

Vehicles on the through road have the right-of-way, so Car A must yield to both Car B and C. Car B is turning left and must yield to oncoming traffic (Car C). Therefore the correct order is C, B, A.

You're driving behind a driver who's acting inexperienced. How should you treat the driver?

Be extra patient when driving close to inexperienced drivers. Learning to drive is a process of practice and experience - allow them more room and keep a safe following distance.

Which car has the right-of-way?

Even though car A is facing a green light, vehicles already within the intersection have the ‘right-of-way’ (e.g. traffic still in the intersection after the lights change). This means that car B has the ‘right-of-way’ in this situation.

Driving much slower than other traffic:

While driving much slower than other traffic doesn’t sound dangerous, it can in fact be just as dangerous as speeding. You may cause other vehicles to have to suddenly swerve to avoid your vehicle, cause a rear-end collision, or block traffic.

Does slowing down before a curve reduce the chance of skidding?

Braking in a curve may cause your vehicle to skid. This can be avoided by slowing down beforehand.

The probability of a serious accident ____ if you drink and drive.

Drunk driving is one of the main causes of road fatalities. Alcohol affects your driving abilities (such as your reaction time and judgment) and will make you overconfident. Intoxicated drivers will almost certainly collide at a higher speed than sober drivers.

What does this sign mean?

This sign means that there is a railroad crossing ahead. Slow down and watch out for trains when approaching the crossing.

What’s the distance to Hollywood Blvd?

The exit to Hollywood Blvd is in 1 ½ miles.

Which statement is true?
